FAQ’s about grooming

  • This depends on a variety of factors including the size of the dog and the type of salon service requested. WE ASK FOR 4-5 HOURS. Smaller dogs are typically a quicker groom than larger breeds. It takes around an hour for your dog to be prepped and bathed. The blow dry can take between 30 minutes for small dogs or shorthaired breeds and 90 minutes for larger dogs and longhaired breeds. The haircut itself usually lasts between 45 and 90 minutes, again dependent on the size of dog, coat type, and haircut. Specialty haircuts take longer such as lion cuts, pom poms, and show clips. Dog training and behavior often influence the duration of the groom. For first time pets and puppies we ask for a little patience as we train your pet as part of the process.

  • Tailored Tails does not provide water, treats, or food of any kind to your animal during the grooming process. We do not want to introduce your pet to anything that could make them ill or flare up diagnosed or undiagnosed medical issues. This includes food and treats that you provide from home. The safety of your pet is our top priority.

    *Exceptions can be made for special medical conditions diagnosed by a veterinarian.

  • Your dog's safety is our top priority followed closely by completing the grooming efficiently to reduce the amount of time they may have to wait for pickup. The kennel has grates which allow the dog to use the restroom should they need to. If your pet needs to stay beyond pick up time, we will be happy to add them to the indoor/outdoor play rotation upon request.

  • For playcare, you can drop off as early as 7:30am and pick up as late as 6:00pm. Any pick up after 6:00pm will incur an overnight charge of $50.

  • Before grooming appointment : When used before a groom, playcare is a smart tool to help get some of that puppy energy out and ensure your dog gets their best groom possible. It could also be used if you need to drop your dog off before 8am.

    After Grooming appointment : When used after a groom, playcare is a convenient option for owners who have a hard time leaving work during the day to pick up and transport their dog home during their lunch break. With pickup as late as 6pm you will have plenty of time after work to come collect your freshly groomed loved one.
